Concentration of asset owners exposed to power sector stranded assets may trigger climate policy resistance
Many fossil-dependent assets stand to lose value due to the implementation of climate policies. Policymakers should not ignore that owners of these stranded assets will likely oppose climate policies. In this post, you can find out which owners across the globe may find their power plants stranded.
The impact of rural electrification beyond lights
Electrified groundwater irrigation majorly drives India's agricultural growth. India refocussed rural electrification towards universal household electrification in early 2000s. This paper finds regions electrifying more recently to experience far lower gains in electrified groundwater irrigation.
Lipid Nanomachines Overcome Endo−Lysosomal Barrier
The presence of endo−lysosomal barrier limits the intracellular delivery of therapeutic biologics, but our lipid nanomachines bypass this barrier and improve the delivery efficiency regardless of the types of cargo and target cell.
Partner choice in social dilemmas can increase resource inequality
When individuals can choose with whom to cooperate, do they behave self-servingly and choose those who are ‘better off’? Or do they cooperate with others who are ‘worse off’, thereby helping others instead of themselves? We find that cooperation under partner choice can increase inequality.
Metal-free Photoinduced C(sp3)–H/C(sp3)–H Cross-Coupling to access α‑Tertiary Amino Acid Derivatives
The cross-dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) reaction is the most efficient method for constructing α-tertiary amino acids (ATAAs). Here, we present a mild, metal-free CDC reaction for the construction of ATAAs with good yields and regioselectivity.
